Permanent subcommittee of the university senate

The Senate Committee for Young Academics (Young Academics Committee) is responsible for preparing resolutions, in particular, that concern fundamental matters of the advancement of young researchers and matters that transcend the area of a faculty. These include, in particular, matters of career planning and good employment conditions. The non-student members of the committee also form the award committee for the state graduate scholarships. Furthermore, the committee is responsible for awarding the scholarships in the "Scholarships for female postdocs in transitional periods" and for admission to the "Honours Programme for Future Researchers".
